- Google has been known to hinder the rankings of new websites (or pages) until they have proven their viability to exist for more than “x” amount of time. This is referred to as the “Google Sandbox.” DDSRank assumes no liability for ranking/traffic/indexing issues related to Google Sandbox penalties.
- Occasionally, search engines will drop listings for no apparent or predictable reason. Often, the listing will reappear without any additional SEO. Should a listing be dropped during the SEO campaign and does not reappear within 30 days of campaign completion, DDSRank will re-optimize the website/page based on the current policies of the search engine in question.
- Linking to “bad neighborhoods” or getting links from “link farms” can seriously damage all SEO efforts. DDSRank does not assume liability for the Client’s choice to link to or obtain a link from any particular website without prior consultation.
